The time has come!

Have seen such good reviews and have been thinking about it for a while. There's me and my 3 teen dds, we all have dark hair and pale skin which I understand it works best on.

Which model should I buy and are there any discounts currently available?

Looking at these too but have more questions. What happens if over the next couple of years my hair becomes grey-would it still work or after a couple of years use, will I have little hair anyway. Bit puzzled.
Also would this work on a man, to remove his unwanted hair...again before he goes grey? Any thoughts appreciated.
I will be good to keep up with those of you who have just purchased to see how you get on.

I have the Braun one and men can use that, but not on facial hair so I imagine it's the same for the Lumea. I have noticed the hair on my legs is definitely growing slower after 3 treatments. Don't think they work on grey hair though.

I have had mine for at least 3 years. I am not sure which model, but it has only one head. I am pale (but I do tan) with black body hair.

One of the best things I ever bought. I go over my lower legs about once a year, but I could count the hairs that grow on them. My feet Blush are now completely hairless, and my armpits grow about one hair each.

I still get my bikini waxed off, but I have used the lumea on the edges to great success.

It doesn't hurt - you can't even feel it.

...I have also used it on my teen's upper arms (where he had black wiry hair that he hated) and my dh's shoulders.

I bought one of these about 5 years ago and opened it up and it said don't use if pregnant or breastfeeding.

Still waiting to get to a point in my life where I'm not one of those things.

I hope it still works or that's £300 down the drain
